Mera agar dil nahi maanta toh wo kirdaar main nibha nahi sakta (If it doesn't appeal to me, I can't portray that character with honesty). I have to be honestly connected to the character." 
 
He added: "Jogi holds a special place in my heart and I say it with pride that this has been told on a global platform like Netflix which has huge reach and impact. I am forever thankful and grateful for all my fans who make me who I am and I wish they like me in and as Jogi."
